I hate the Way Black people Talk

72% Normal

It's totally normal.

You feel this way through your own personal observations and experience. There are different patterns of behavior when considering different races, and the factors that contribute to the African American race anger you. I think it's interesting though to think of Asians and how usually quiet and mild mannered they are. I wonder if they feel the same way about you as you do about African Americans?

Anyway. Purely playing on stereotypes, but it is interesting to think about how people consider other races.

im black and i agree lol
i dont talk like them so i get how you feel man . and yes it is normal they piss alot of people off that way .

ps you may want to keep that a secret however because they have a very short temper and things can get ugly .

your not alone. most younger african americans don't know how to conduct themselfs as human beings. what drives me nuts is the fact that they can't speak correct english. when you try to correct them they call you a racist. im not racist i just use correct english.

All races need to to understand that we are all different. We all have some good attributes and some not so good attributes. I think the we all need to be a bit more accepting of people's bad points as well. It would pretty boring if we all the same. Try some breathing methods when confronted with things that may aggraviate you in some ways. Also try and think about why you are getting so angry, I do not feel that getting angry over a few people raising their voice is healthy. Good luck!! Oh I am black by the way and yes we are a passionate, lively and colourful race!!

I'm a white person and I think white people are just as obnoxious as black people.

White people are so loud in my neighborhood, usually on weeknights when they're doing their sports-bar-hopping in t-shirts in 30 degree weather, screaming their bloody heads off, thinking they are so unique and smart and funny and entertaining, and just knowing that in a few short years they're going to procreate with blond people who look exactly like them, and raise their blond/honey-brown-haired children to be the same spoiled, entitled little bitches, screaming in restaurants, department stores, the bus, the train, everywhere I go, well.

I think that all people are just equally obnoxious.

yea i absolutely hate black culture, i figured out that i dont give a shit what your race is i just haaaaate anything to do with black culture, seriously i hope anyone involved in black culture dies, that just happens to be 95% of black people and some wiggers so that is why i feel racist but fuck black culture n word thugs

lol. don't visit south africa. they talk in the street, and you can hear it a couple of streets away if there's no traffic (not exaggerated. this really does happen)

I guess i can see what you guys are all saying. But the thing is, i don't think it's the loud voices that's bothering me, rather i think it's the form of racism that i have to face most of the days in my building. I guess i didn't express what i was irritated about clearly.

Thank you for your answer. I understand that people are different in all kinds of ways and that is normal. I know that not all Africans are like that, i guess it's the people in my building. H mm. Some of them are very obnoxious and rude. I haven't done anything to them and yet they start talking smack about my race. I almost abhor going home because well... i know that in one way or another, they'll ruin my day by saying something rude and I'll get irritated. Lols, i don't think this rubbish is even remotely interesting to a stranger on the net. But oh wells.

Yes,you are right, but when you live in a place where you are a minority, you tend to get picked on a lot. The whole t-shirt running in 30 degree weather was actually kinda funny.^_^

you are a racist. this is not an insult. I suspect that you "hate" period and that other aspects of cultures different from your own annoy you as well. my advise is examine anxiety openly with a therapist if this doesn't work then you should join the neo-nazi moment and run with it. just kidding.

Also you must remember that regardless of race, creed or anything else 2 things 1) humans despite or history of civilization build up are stupid all of us. 2) tetris is the most wicked awesome video game ever created, period. (TC,IO)

This is normal. I cant stand most of them either. they talk and talk and talk. And they say N***a every five seconds! and then when anyone else says it they're "racist" they all need to just be quiet and not talk so dang loud.

Dude, i don't hate races other than my own. For one, if i did i probably would've complained about them as well. The problem is that i am the minority in a building mostly of african americans. They badmouth me all the freaking time while i mind my own business. and it happens in the goddamn elevator cuz they know i'm gonna hear it and theres a bunch of them and only one of me.

wow man, you definitely need to work on anger issues. i mean, i can see you getting annoyed. heck, i'm a young black man and i get annoyed with obnoxious kids of my race (as well as the just as many obnoxious white kids), but you want to kill them.....?
thats a little far, dont you think

and as to flikr... welcome to the 21st century. im guessing you live in alabama or mississppi or something, because the civilized states have moved on (STUPID IGNORANT PEOPLE HATE). and its not hard to guess that your closet is full of white sheets and hoods. its people like you that make this world such a horrible place to live in.
I hope you don't call yourself a Christian.

GOD you little bitch! Racy much? Is this just with black people? ot white? That's totally terrible of you. I hope it is at least just this grouop of people that make you want to feel this way.

God, wontwork, you're the kind of idiot that everyone hates. Your comment was basically based on the title of the story. You probably just read the 1st paragraph and not the second. i know you didn't give much thought to your stupid comment because someone who had thought it out would know that psychologically people start to dislike the people that were racist against them. FYI, it is only the people in my neighborhood that i dislike because they're the ones who are jackasses. And what does white people have to do with anything? Did i even mention them? Don't put your two cents on my comment page without anything constructive.

i think people need to stop
stereotyping behavior with a certain race
you hate ignorance
ive met ignorant people from all races
and "black" isnt a race or culture flickr
your an ignorant douchbag

as if all other races ar quite?
againive meet loud people from every race
get over yourself

Well, you are a racist. You take annoying behaviour that may be attributable to class and lifestyle, and attribute it to race. I'd probably find the same behaviour annoying. I'd probably move. But I have no sympathy for you. You are a bigot, and you will take that bigotry with you wherever you go.

It's normal to be annoyed by that.

We live in a very polarized society.

Everything is about race or "group" thinking. I'm getting tired of it. Everything is about this minority or that one or the handicapped or gays...I think under it all we all want the same things: Decent job, nice relationships and general happiness, those types of basic things.

BTW, anybody who brings up race for no reason in conversation like you mentioned is a racist. Black or white. Period.

All the people here who say he's being racist you should check yourselves.

He's giving very definitive reasoning and occurrences of why he feels how he feels.

The people at his apartment would probably anger the hell out of me as well.

Then the other people reminded him of the people at his apartment.

"Guilty by association." Which in this case was their actions.

hey i used to hang round COLORED all the time they are AWESOME i mean not all colored people talk loud dont be hatin (imagime me yellin at u)

hey at least you had the balls to talk about something as controversial as this. after living in a cultural hubbub, I've witnessed all of the annoying idolatries of the different folk. Surfer accents bug the anger out of me and usually blood and bones from the fucking idiots talking like the valley douchebags, whiny guys usually drive me insane with rage as well. I suppose everyone has their limits with the way other people act and it's perfectly normal to hate them for it. however the wanting to kill them bit (though I can understand that it's entirely an exaggeration for the sake of storytelling ... RIGHT?) is a little weird. Maybe you should avoid fried chicken joints and mixed elevators for a while?

btw: the last line was a joke? if it got you hot and worked up, you should take a porn break.

Way to be a racist.
Not ALL black people talk the same and act "ghetto".
I'm sick of people trying to clump all black people into one big stereotypical pile of shit.
Keep your ignorance tucked away for us will ya?

How DARE you talk about a person of a different race!! I am white, but I ABSOLUTELY think it's DISGUSTING when I hear people LIKE YOURSELF act like it's the Civil War. You think people of a different color are rude? You ARE rude!! Look, I used to live in New York City, and I always treated everyone equal. EVERYONE talks loudly. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSLEF!!!! BE A GROWN-UP and GET A LIFE or something and start treating people equally with NICENESS and DECENCY, not based on the color of their skin.

Well he doesn't have to go on saying that it's every single black person in the world. He isn't being fair to everyone. I agree with caligurl!! I HANG AROUND COLORED PEOPLE AND THEY ARE AWESOME

Well, I can't say whether I agree with you or not. On one point I agree with you that it's annoying that some black people bring up race around white people and think that everyone hates them. But I don't really hate them, I hate some aspects of things they say, even though any white person could bring up those subjects around black people too.

I am black, and I too hate the way black people often speak. However, you must know that it actually has nothing to do with race, but with influences. Black people, like all humans, are easily influenced. When they see other black people on television using gutter-level vocabulary to "sing" about how shallow and depraved their lives are, they feel that they must speak the same way in order to identify with the rest of their race. Unfortunately, this reflects negatively even on those of us who do not want to be associated with this stereotype. People often tell me that I am "the whitest black person" they have ever met. I tell them that it is because I was not raised in the Bronx, and they usually get it.

Anyway, next time you here black people talking like imbeciles, beat the shit out of them, and give them a hit for me too.

Well, you should be ashamed of yourself for insulting someone for sharing their feelings in a forum that was made for people to share their feelings in. People just need to vent. Shut up.

Before I say what I want to say, I just wanted to first of all claim that I am in no way intending to be racist or offend anyone with my post. All I intend to do is to just understand some black people more and understand what they may be going through inside. I say "some" because some are simply not like this at all and in fact are quite the opposite. In my younger years, a black person was one of my best friends. But he did ever seem "angry" inside or anything to me.

I recently moved to a new neighborhood in my city. It's a very mixed neighborhood, with some whites, some blacks, some asian, etc. It's a very diverse neighborhood. Anyway, I was heading to the store one night to get some stuff. I was driving down the street and stopped at a light. I didn't think twice about who was behind me. But then I heard a honk behind me. I tried to figure out why I was being honked at. The light was still red, so I wasn't allow to go yet. And I didn't notice anything else that was obviously wrong. Yet I kept getting honked at. The car had a black man and woman in it. The man was the driver and he looked very angry. I was puzzled and trying to figure out what was going on. Then all of the sudden he bumped my car like as though he was telling me to just go.

I couldn't just go because the light was red and I didn't want to break the law. Yet this guy seriously looked like he was going to kill me or something. I just couldn't understand it. So when the light finally turned green I started going and figured I would stop at the store since it was close and we could assess whether any damage was done there. The guy started getting right on my tail and could easily bump me again if I were to stop at all. That's when I figured out that maybe it would be a good idea to stop somewhere public because this guy looked so angry that I really did think he was going to kill me.

The big surprise was when we both go out of our cars. He started screaming at me and telling me that I am lucky I didn't bump his car too much. Excuse me? With all due respect sir, you bumped me! Of course, I didn't want to say anything to provoke this man. He seriously looked like he was ready to pull out a gun or something. By then, an officer from the store heard us and he came over to assess the situation. The officer was also black.

While the angry guy was still there, I never claimed that the guy hit me. I just kept saying sorry and wanted nothing more than peace and for this guy to just calm down and be a little rational about the situation. He eventually left in frustration. I talked to the officer afterwards about what really happened and how the guy just looked really angry. He started explaining to me a little bit about why he was being like that. I don't remember too much about what he was saying. He was saying something about how "brothers" are taught in households to "fight" and to "be aggressive" or something of that nature. For the next week, I tried to understand what it is that these people are "fighting"? I mean, we now have a brilliant black President of the US, a black Attorney General of the US, many new opportunities for all, slavery is long gone, etc. What is it that they are still "fighting" or just always angry for? I just want to understand, that's all.

I recognize that I am sort of making generalizations with my post that I really shouldn't be. I wanted to post here because I am frankly just too scared to raise the question to somebody in real life. I guess it's just that I've experienced this a lot of with black people in my past and as a result I tend to be a bit fearful of them at times. Like when I go bike riding, when I go by a group of black people in my neighborhood, they just seem so mad at me every time I go by. What's going on?

Everyone who has brothers most likely fought with them. I know I did with mine. However, I found this story interesting. I am a young black male, and I grew up in many different cultures as a result of a military family. So I have seen my fair share of different groups of people. I have met some "black" people that are loud, belligerent, and rude. However, I have met almost as much "whites" and "Latinos" that are the same way. Although they do not speak in the same manner, they have the same characteristics that I do dislike.

I have read other comments that have addressed the African American community of being easily influenced and I do believe that is true to some extent (not to a great extent either). Also, when one group has a larger microscope on them it easy to attribute a small percentage of attitudes to a whole "community".

I do have a "fight" in me however. I have a fight to be able to have someone look past the color of my skin before they associate me with a certain personality. Maybe if people, such as the person who wrote this post, would stop associating races with actions committed by individuals there would be much less fighting in the world. And the goes for everyone.

PS: Maybe caludus85 you were at a right turn on red, thats why the guy was irritated. And why would you assume he had a weapon???? If your mother, father, uncle, sister, cousin....were pissed off at you would you assume they had a gun on them???

You are very normal, I myself am of mixed Caribbean heritage and I can't speak from personal experience but the way that black people in America speak is a complete bastardisation of the English language. I am all for slang, but not a complete turnover of the English language.

P.S. There are loud people of every culture, it's more of a personality thing than an ethnic trace.

What's with all the generalities people? If I said I was scared of whites because all of them wear white robes and carry lynches-then I'd be wrong. I happen to be a young black female with a very advanced vocabulary. I speak better than most white people I know. I think that you need to get out more and expand your mind. Not all black people act like the one's on BET or the way modern media portrays us as (wild, ignorant, violent). When will all the racism/discrimination/stereotyping end?

I understand that unfortunately you have encountered a common stereotype of African Americans. But asserting that we are all loud and obnoxious is extremely rude and derogatory. In this day in age I would expect that people would have a more modern ideologies, and would discontinue over generalizing and grouping all people of one race as %u201Cthis%u201D or %u201Cthat%u201D. Personally I do not think your view is normal, and I also believe that you need to readjust your views on the world. I suppose that your are not only upset with how %u201Cloud%u201D people are speaking, but maybe you had a bad encounter with a Black person and you have chosen to assume that we are all the same. Trust me we are not, and these stereotypes and centuries long racist ideas group us all in one boat which is not fair to individuals like me, my friends , my family and neighbours.

Some people are just dicks regardless of ethnicity you racist

U are an idiot 1st off......2nd I'm black. How can u put a stereotype on a group of people and say that u hate the way they do things. Have u not ever seen white people talk just like "black" people? Its a language just like any other. I don't have problems with anyone unless u disrespect me 1st. So dawg how bout u tell them muh fuckas how u really feeling and let's see what pops off lol....since I hear this bullshit everyday u should know what I just said. Try it and then come back and tells us your new story.

Okay,

I am a minority (not black) but I will try to be objective about this. It's okay to dislike how some people talk. There is nothing wrong with this. And I think any national group, race, tribe, or tongue would be pissed about somebody disrespecting them. This is very human.

About the killing: Not a good idea. It will accomplish nothing beyond getting you into a lot of trouble. I know you were probably saying this as a hyperbole (example: "I am going to KILL my little brother because he at all of the cookies!") but hate and violence are not good. Don't turn to "the dark side".

Talk About It With Others Like You're Doing Now (Blow Off Some Steam. Make A Black Friend. Not One Who Is Like The People You Dislike But One Who Appreciates The Same Values As You Do. Believe It Or Not, It Will Help! :)

Not all black people talk the same, so you can't really classify all black people as talking the same. However some black people do speak slightly annoying, but if you don't like it don't listen to it, use headphones to block out the sound, it's not that expensive.

I'm trying to figure out something similar. How come every time a black person gets disciplined at work it's always about race and about how they are singled out and how they are gonna sue. To me that's a bunch of bullshit. If the person did something wrong then they need to pay the consequences and quit playing the race card. Also what really gets me even more angry is when you get a black person that wants to stir the pot and cause problems coz they have issues of their own and want to create a lynch mob for their own self satisfaction. Let me give you another example. I was asked by a black female if she could...mind you these are her exact words, not kidding...."listen to MY music." It wasn't can I turn the radio on it was can I listen to MY music. Later on she told me that she said it that way "just to see what I would say." Why would she intentionally play the mind games and create a tense racial situation? That's where I get angry at how stupid the whole thing is. Music is music, big deal. Why get yourself all worked up and stereotype me just because I'm white and you think I won't like your choice of a radio station?

im not racist but im beginning to really hate black people, not because they are black cos thats ridiculous, but the fact that they aremore racist than others and the discriminate against others a ton too. and in my experience they all think they are cool and think that your gf would like them more than you because they are black and have big penises........yeah........right. what kind of a prick goes to a guys gf and goes on bout how they should try some black meat in front of her bf, what a wanker. and also they do talk like a mentally ill retard, with an additional speech impediment

It sounds like they're just doing to to mess with you because they find it funny. They're intentionally instigating a reaction out of you so they can play the race card and laugh at your expense or mess with you further.

Okay first of all i'm Black and i couldn't agree with you more, i actually have enough sense, and decency to keep quiet on any train/car/bus/others because i'm well mannered
but what i don't get is why my race is so loud and annoying. I actually feel like standing up and telling them to shut the f*ck up. Its Annoying and people like peace and quiet on the train/bus/car/others.

Yea I hate them too one black guy came up to me before and started to put his hands in my pocket trying to take my money I punched him in his face and he started walking away taking out his cellphone and saying hes going to call his boys. I called him a pussy as he walked away.

im black and i can see were your coming from... because of the fact that im not ghetto and i dress really fitted (skinny jeans big sneakers typical skater) snd i talk properly its because im Haitian i always get stared at walking into my building and ita annoying. not to be rude but i think us African Americans are the most racist race.. because i live in a predominately black neighborhood if a white person would dere show up they'd most likly get robbed and its wrong... uggg sometimes i hate having this complexion, but not all black people are like that lol

Yo ma nig...
I concur.
But I honestly believe this "Negroid" behavior is manifest more so in the lower socio-economic groups.
I know some fine upstanding darkies who speak proper English, who wear their pants around their waists not their lower thighs, who never use the term "nigga" and who are actually worlds smarter than I could ever hope to be.

I find that poor whites are equally annoying and for much the same reasons as you stated, although they're not quite so hung up on the whole race thing.

Regardless, you have every right to feel as you do and I don't think you're a bad person for expressing your beliefs in this regard.

Wow, well let's see...
First off, its perfectly normal that you feel this way. Although you can't sit here and state that African Americans are the ONLY ones that act like this; not true.

Probably the majority of African Americans do act like this because of where you live, I can't honestly say.
Also, you can't hate JUST because of the way we talk. Lol. Have you ever thought majority of African Americans do not speak proper English is because we were probably not corrected right. Oh, if a person tries to correct them, then you're racist comment is BEYOND ignorant? Who does that?

Another thing, when you say a group of kids on a train/bus did you mean a group of black/Latino/Arabians etc etc kids or just kids in generally? Mostly all of the kids go around doing that not just in trains or buses.
Although, I wish my daughter would go and act a fool! (she's nine by the way)

People talking about other races are so petty, don't let the little things get to you! Oh and if it bothers you so much just move to another apartment building, I'm sure the admin. office would understand.
I'm African American by the way!

Hoped this helped a little!

-blackbutterfly

It's funny how non black people can have maybe a couple of bad experience's with black/hispanic/asian/native american etc.. people and from that one bad experience, you hate all people of color and ASSUME that all black people act this way or all hispanic people act this way or all asian people.

When someone white flings their racism in my face that person is racist, not all white people!! Seriously??

Those people in the elevator are stupid. I am black and I don't talk loud. And it's not all black people..ignorant!

This is the reason why it is so hard to get out of a sterotype..no matter how i dress, talk, what music i listen to: FYI I dress like a scene kid/emo/punk. I listen to EVERYTHING! To Marylin Manson to the Jonas Brothers. My Black friends make fun of the way I talk..They think i try to talk like a white girl and i'm not! I grew up in California OC! sue me for having a preppy tone.

It's like i can't win. In the black community i'm acting white, in your community i'll always be the sterotype..it SUCKS!!

If people talk like loud, crass, depraved people just to identify with others that are the same "race", then I think it's fair to group those people together and say "hey your race talks too loud." If THOSE people identify themselves with a race then isn't it fair to criticize them as a race?

And yeah, it is normal. I've met cool blacks, but the pattern seems to be a mix of the following; loud, unhealthy, rude, angry, unrefined, and spoiled. The occurrance of each attribute simply is more frequent. I'm making no apologies for my experience - and I'm not prejudiced. I am open to everyone and treat them basically the same (unless they look dangerous).

In my opinion black people need to break out of their bubble of self-loathing and infantile hedonism and see THEMSELVES as human beings.

My coworker is black, he is a graphic designer, and he is totally cool.

It's the poor or lower-class blacks that follow the pattern of being generally disgusting in behavior, thinking, expression, and appearance. There are poor people all over the world that run circles around them in terms of gentleness. Go to Cuzco, Peru; everyone is poor, and everyone is incredibly nice and humble, and no one is white.

Zombies talk worse. Mmmmrrgggghhhhh. And that means, "how are you today, sir"

I hate how they talk also, its allways "yo wagaggle gaggle gaggle gygfligulig", it almost makes me want to take my dick out of their mouths.

I don't necessarily hate black people. I hate "gangsta" culture which just happens to be founded and consist mostly of black people. It's such a stupid self destructive and embarrassing culture. The thing is every black person I've met who's come from Africa or the middle east is usually really cool. They've also straight up told me they hate hanging out with American blacks because they hate the gangster culture as well. Having just come out of 3rd world cultures run by people like that they tend to want to avoid those kinds of people.

What's even worse is that this gangster culture is starting to spread outside of African Americans to pretty much everybody. I know white college kids who are all into the gangster culture and it's annoying as hell.

Anyway, my two cents on the situation.
